Thank you all for your replies, i really appreciate them. @Tony My goal is to ditch this crappy work, or eventually do it remotely. Although i have 2 months behind of getting payed, i still need it to pay the bills. I have 15 years of my life here and i don't want to get out with my finger up my butt. I already tried and agreement with thm to let me go but it didn't work out too well.
My goal is that exactlly. Make something of value, change something, help people, bring them closer... i'd like it to be my legacy (ok, a bit too romantic...) !! Also i think is a business oportunity, i can't eat fullfilment and they don't accept that as bank payments either. So i guess my drive is a little bit of both. You make some very good sugestions. Maybe the in-person ones are a bit difficult for me, i'm a shy guy at first, but maybe i'll try and start contacting the 50000 hostels around and try to understand if they have many costumers that actually do some work, etc... Start a FB group/community on the subject... Only one doubt, do i make this approach as a "business" owner/entrepeneur obviously community member and caring fellow coworker or do it has just another coworker trying to reach out and then come up with a "solution"... a cowork space? The latter doesn't make me feel very good about myself, as i feel i'm tricking people and using them... (not sure if i made myself clear on the point!!) @Trevor thanks for sharing your experience. I read somewhere that the idea is about 5% of a "product", so not to woory about the idea getting stollen. But there's always a risk and i'm glad you understand my fear. Read your post, nice going man. I'm not sure i want to go the coop way, but it's nice to see you came out on top with that all story.
